    I think you are correct, there is currently no option for this. There is a cool skill code tool called Logomaker that will let you import Your logo or any bmp, jpeg image (so that might be an option).

    It is possible to globally change the font - by hand editing \share\pcb\text\ansifont.dat.

     Hi,

    I want to change font of the labels of the pcb. I don't know what I have to do with ansifont.dat. I have to edit this file or I have to replace it with some other file.

    Kindly help.

    Regards

    Tanveer

    It may not be possible to change the logo alone to different Font type in allegro. but if you have any BMP file, you can genenrate plot file and scale different size and use in the layout.
